10 Photography Tours in State of Sao Paulo That You Shouldn't Miss

May 11, 2022 Lean Nau

São Paulo (Portuguese pronunciation: [sɐ̃w ˈpawlu] ( listen)) is one of the 26 states of the Federative Republic of Brazil and is named after Saint Paul of Tarsus. As the richest Brazilian state and a major industrial complex, often dubbed the "locomotive of Brazil", the state is responsible for 33.9% of the Brazilian GDP. São Paulo also has the second highest Human Development Index (HDI) and GDP per capita, the fourth lowest infant mortality rate and the third lowest rate of illiteracy among the federative units of Brazil. São Paulo alone is richer than Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia combined. If São Paulo were an independent country, its nominal GDP would be ranked among the top 20 in the world (2010 estimate). The economy of São Paulo State is the most developed in Brazil.

What makes good photography tour? Is it set-ups and copying the shots of the guide? Or is it the opportunity to be creative, interpretative and capture unique impressions of a place? If it is the latter, then Victor is your ideal guide. He was previously an advertising art director and now a full time photography guide. Victor understands that photographers do not want just record shots or narcissistic selfie shots, but rather images that reflect a place and the photographer, and tell part of a story or journey. For me, I wanted to capture some of the everyday lifestyles in Sao Paulo, Some parts of Sao Paulo are potentially dangerous and so it is essential to have a photographer/guide like Victor that knows Sao Paulo and where to go for photography and to keep clients safe. We started off at the Luz train station which is architecturally interesting to photograph. Also it is an photographically interesting place to photograph locals . From there we did a walk about of parts of the downtown area to photograph street activities and some historic but photographically interesting buildings. We encountered a small dance group practicing for an upcoming event and have attached a few photos. Victor is a versatile photographer with an artistic eye- so you just need to advise him what your photographic style and interests are . As far as I can tell, Victor does not do set-ups for others to copy but takes you to places that offer photo opportunities for self expression and interpretation I have been in photography for more that 40 years and highly recommend Victor.

Love photography? How about practicing photography while enjoying life, making new friends and visually discovering Paulista? Experiencing an environment of freedom, autonomy, and connection \o/ The experience has 3 moments: We start with a chat about photography for 1h in a coffee shop. In it, we will talk about my life story (a big life change) both verbally and through photographs to explore the meanings of photographs. We'll look at printed photos, a book (made by our local photowalk community which printed copies are not publicly available), etc. The conversation sets the mood of the photowalk and connects the group. Afterwards, we will photowalk through Paulista Avenue with some special places included that were discussed during our initial chat (Fri/Sat/Sun: we have special authorization to photograph the Conjunto Nacional building*). We will end our photowalk with a special and personalized surprise for each participant. Just this surprise is worth the ticket value ;). Let's go together! Book now \o/

Inclusions: A special and personalized surprise at the end that just this surprise is worth the ticket value ;)., The photographer (Filipe Morgado) will lead a photography chat during the first moment of the experience and will assist everyone during the experience., Authorization to photograph in the Conjunto Nacional building (on Fri/Sat/Sun and respecting unexpected events that prevent us)., Small groups, up to 4 people.

Exclusions: Food and beverages consumed by participants are not included. , The experience is a PHOTOWALK, not a PHOTO SHOOT/ESSAY/SESSION, nor a photography WORKSHOP, as I do not impose learning to the participants.

I had Neto as a tour guide for my city tour and he was AMAZING!!! he is unbelievably smart about Brazil and history/travel in general. he took us to a great breakfast spot, to see an incredible view on the top of the museum and best tour of the market where he helped us negotiate prices for fruits and taste the best pastel i had during my time in Brazil!! He was also very open to go to whatever other spots we were interested in visiting. He was the most genuine, patient, and funniest guide I've had in such a long time! He maximized time, didn't rush us back, and took amazing pictures of my group and i!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

We booked a Localgrapher for a couples shoot in Arizona. The results were okay at best, and we regretted not seeking out an established local in the area. For the price, we received 60 very average choices and the ability to select 35 shots. We couldn’t even find 35 framed correctly. The localgrapher website is also a joke which requires a youtube video to figure out. The UI is terrible and the photos will disappear rapidly so do not wait to download (set aside a couple hours - that’s how bad it is). But really, just avoid. Hire someone directly.
